LibriVox recording of Pamphilia to Amphilanthus by Lady Mary.

Pamphilia to Amphilanthus is the first sonnet sequence written by an Englishwoman. Published in 1621, the poems invert the usual format of sonnet sequences by making the speaker a woman (Pamphilia, whose name means "all-loving") and the beloved a man (Amphilanthus, whose name means "lover of two."). It is possible that Wroth based the story on her own fraught relationship with her cousin, William Herbert. (Summary by Elizabeth Klett.)

Subject: Pamphilia to Amphilanthus
Elizabeth Klett's thorough understanding of her text and of the period in which it is set imbues every line of her wonderful reading of these fascinating poems.
